7. I think art and music may be coming back

Perhaps not in the context of public schools but I do see a lot of artistic expression, more than I did as a kid.

I have a niece that is an art teacher in a public school - she gets lots of support from the parents. Even though the school system has tried to cut her position, the parents fought that and have kept her teaching.

I also have a nephew and his wife who both are on the faculty at the New England Conservatory of music. He and his wife travels all over the world teaching music mostly to young people.
